Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing changes between the two maps, but it suffers from significant issues with data accuracy and task achievement. There are several inaccuracies regarding the locations and types of developments (for example, mentioning an airport and a police station replacing a train station, which contradicts the visual description). While the report identifies some changes, such as the addition of a hall of residence and a bike rental scheme, the descriptions are often speculative (e.g., suggesting changes were made to attract tourists or increase revenue) rather than purely reporting the visible data. To improve, focus on strictly reporting what is shown in the maps without speculating on the reasons behind the changes, and ensure that the relationship between old and new features is described accurately.

Coherence & Cohesion

The organization of ideas is somewhat logical, but the progression is frequently interrupted by punctuation errors and improper sentence structures. The use of cohesive devices (e.g., 'Moreover', 'Furthermore', 'In terms of') is present, but they are often used incorrectly or preceded by improper punctuation, which disrupts the flow. To improve, focus on using full stops to separate distinct ideas rather than using commas to join independent clauses (comma splicing). Ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is limited and contains numerous spelling errors (e.g., 'bitween', 'nowdays', 'showes', 'nwe', 'shopes', 'oppisite', 'sdhown', 'advancwd', 'resedents', 'yhe'). There is also an attempt to use sophisticated language to speculate on the purpose of changes (e.g., 'ensuring greater revenue'), which is generally discouraged in Task 1 as you should only report what is visible. Focus on accuracy in spelling and using precise descriptive verbs for map changes, such as 'relocated', 'constructed', 'expanded', or 'replaced'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and significantly impact readability. There are issues with subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, and sentence construction. For example, 'the development thats happens' and 'the way they used to let the city seems better' are grammatically incorrect. Punctuation is also a major issue, with many sentences starting with capital letters after commas or containing unnecessary spaces before punctuation marks. Aim to master basic sentence structures (Subject + Verb + Object) before attempting complex sentences, and ensure that your tenses are appropriate for describing past vs. present layouts.
